One is Plenty

Jared and Novalee are watching Nanny McPhee and Jared just asked me. "Mom, if you are married and your wife dies, do you have to get remarried?"

I said, "No you don't have to get married again but you can if you want."
Jared: "But would that mean I would have two wives? Is it better to have just one?"

To avoid confusion I just said, "If your wife dies, it is alright to get married again."

To which he replied, "When I grow up, if my wife dies I'm not going to marry again. I think one wife is plenty enough." :)
